Help with time formula to count cells below a time (some pass midnight)

I have a spread sheet which has times

I need to count how many are below a set time but due to some going past midnight i cannot get a true answer

I have tried the COUNTIF but this fails to count correctly

this is what i have tried second line =COUNTIF(C23:G23,"<3:01 AM") result was 0

Any help with a formula please

Explanation / Answer

I am trying this in Excel 2013

=COUNTIF(C23:G23,"<"&TIME(3,1,0))


=COUNTIF(C23:G23,"<3:01")

=COUNTIF(C23:G23,"<3:01 AM")

The only reason it won't work is that your data is not in TIME format but in text format. Please select a cell and see whether it is in TIME format or not.
